Johnson v. Illinois Dept. of Corrections

PRESIDING JUSTICE TURNER

delivered the opinion of the court:

In July 2004, plaintiff, Terry C. Johnson, filed a pro se complaint against defendants, the Illinois Department of Corrections (DOC), Roger E. Walker, Jr., and the Illinois Prisoner Review Board (PRB), seeking the restoration of good-conduct credits, an award of meritorious good-conduct credits, and his immediate release from custody. In August 2004, defendants moved to dismiss the complaint, which the trial court granted.

On appeal, plaintiff argues the trial court erred in dismissing his complaint. We affirm.
